It's all over this blog. But if you just hang onto rmrd's suspenders, you might miss it.

"AA was salivating over the possible of carnage at the Tulsa commemoration" ......

Bingo.

Peracles, in case you haven't noticed, The Party of Trump is the biggest, most historic sufferer of victim hood in world history, and they are painstakingly working installing 'stop the steal' grievance filled conspiracy theorists in state positions of election authority to make sure they never lose another election.

Maybe you could post about that ongoing assault on this nation and democracy.

Instead of producing a surfeit of inane reactionary attacks on RM, and 'history'.

Not victimhood, just addressing head on topics that white people like you want to avoid.

You are a stereotypical joke.

Fortunately, you and AA do not represent all white people.

Having dinner with a group of white folks Friday.

They are nothing like you and AA, thank goodness.

I will continue to voice my grievances, just as you will voice yours.

Edit to add:

Tulsa represented the theft of generational wealth along with the loss of life.

Edit to add:

It is commonplace for Black families tending college, business school, law school, and nursing school graduations to voice grievances about the treatment of Black bodies.

Those families want to see the John Lewis and George Floyd bills passed. They also want infrastructure bills passed.

Yeah yeah, the Reaper of

Yeah yeah, the Reaper of Dead History and Victimhood is "attending graduations", the promising future. And then launches into the next cycle of victimhood and grievance.

Your true self

No one in my family is shooting each other.

My "homies" are not shooting each other.

We are attending graduations.

I post about improving community services to change conditions in at risk neighborhoods

AA was salivating over the possible of carnage at the Tulsa commemoration

She had to put up a separate post about the "tension" and display a picture of the New Black Panthers

Why did people applaud the Panthers and not the police and government?

Terrence Crutcher:

On September 16, 2016, Terence Crutcher, a 40-year-old black motorist, was shot and killed by police officer Betty Jo Shelby in Tulsa, Oklahoma. He was unarmed, standing near his vehicle in the middle of a street.

The shooting led to protests in Tulsa. Six days later, on September 22, the Tulsa County District Attorney charged Shelby with first-degree manslaughter after the shooting was labeled a homicide. On May 17, 2017, a jury found her not guilty of first-degree manslaughter.

The Governor was kicked off the the Tulsa Race Massacre Commission because he wanted to prevent history from being taught in classrooms

The 1921 Tulsa Race Massacre Centennial Commission removed Gov. Kevin Stitt from the panel just days after he had signed a bill that banned the teaching of certain concepts about race.

In reply to It is an American problem

You're such an ass. AA is pointing out a huge problem while you argue George Floyd and other details ad nauseum. I sure as fuck don't suggest little kids "duck" - they're getting killed. Stop focusing so much on white people and go try to get your homies to stop shooting each other up if you give a shit and are actually black and not some troll sent to stir us up with puerile nonsensical shit forever and ever.

(Of course real black people do recognize the problem and are doing what they can and totally in despair over this awful chain if events - that comes out in AA's postings - "they be niggaz killing niggaz up here" as they used to report to my police dispatch friend, except it's gotten so much worse - everyone's carrying now, it's not just criminals & gang shit - people just have guns for the hell of it or now for "self defense", so they're 1 drink/pill away from popping off on somebody - it's madness.)

It is an American problem

the article is mainly about how some people feel this is all just promotion of "cultural tourism"

Tulsa raised $30 million for the centennial commemoration and not a dime of it went to survivors or their descendants. Incredible. pic.twitter.com/a9ZLUrDc1t

Noticing how much media there has been on it, I would agree that's mainly what is being done. They are getting a ton of bang for their bucks.

In reply to My problem

My problem:

To date, there have been 211 homicides [in Philadelphia]
in 2021, a 38% increase from 2020.

This app maps the victims of gun violence:
638 nonfatal and 175 fatal shooting victims as of May 24, 2021

[https://controller.phila.gov/philadelphia-audits/mapping-gun-violence/#/...

85% of those shootings have black victims, 83% of the deaths are black

Yet rmrd regularly ignores these deaths, focuses only on police blame. NCD shoes up talking bout the NRA - but the white gun nuts sell most of their weapons hyping up what "the blacks" are doing crime-wise. This year, do you blame them? (rhetorical, of course you blame them)

Though oddly if I search for "gun shooting race" i get listings/stories of police killing blacks, which is quite the minority and mostly justified. But happy hip-hop party today...

[and yes, I'm sad for the victims, especially to black communities who definitely don't need this shit, but that's what they've got.]

And after a year of focusing mostly on one white cop who killed one street bum on camera, we're going to pivot to an atrocity against blacks 100 years ago and still ignore what black thugs it drugged-up idiots with guns are doing to black innocents in even greater numbers this year.

Are we learning yet?
